There’s been a little bit of flooding further down our road, water spilling
through the hedgerow and onto the grass. Now it’s frozen solid, little
banners of ice catching the sun and looking beautiful. All the same,
I’ll be glad when Spring and the warmer weather comes!
SPRING PROMISE
Ice on the fields,
Snow falling on bare hedgerows.
Tiny hidden primroses
Waiting to push through frozen ground.
Snowdrops already flowering
This bitter morning.
Reminding Spring is only
A breath away.
Full of light and colour.
Full of sunshine.
